Chapter 174 174 Believed (first update)

"good."

Of course Shen agreed.

So, Chu Qianchen was led out by Nanny Chen.

Amber felt dizzy and followed Chu Qianchen out, feeling that her brain was not strong enough.

She has still not recovered from the shock, and there is only one thought left in her mind: is her girl really the eldest lady's biological daughter? !

Amber felt as if the world was turned upside down.

The Marquis actually did something like swapping two daughters out!

Recalling everything that had happened in the past few months, Amber was surprised, but also felt a sense of sadness.

Mrs. Shen in the room kept staring at Chu Qianchen's back quietly until her back disappeared behind the screen.

"Azhi," Mrs. Mu Guogong knew that her daughter was worried, so she comforted her with a few words, "Sister Chen will definitely believe it."

"She is so smart and understanding..."

"She won't blame you. It's not you who is wrong."

Mrs. Mu Guogong's heart was also in confusion, and her words of comfort were all confused.

In her heart, she actually doubted whether Chu Qianchen, with his intelligence, had already seen some clues, which was why she acted so calmly just now.

Shen's fists were clenched and released, and then clenched again. Her mind was also very confused, and she kept thinking about Chu Qianchen.

Thinking about how she grew up step by step from a porcelain doll-like girl to the slender girl she is now, thinking about the ups and downs she has experienced in the past few months, thinking about the day she got married, thinking about the day she came home...

Thinking of Chu Lingxiao's mistreatment of this child over the years...

Mrs. Shen sat on the couch absentmindedly, with a whirlpool in her pupils.

The room became quiet, time passed quietly, the sunset outside completely set, and night fell.

On summer nights, the moon and stars are sparse, and the night is as cool as water. Only the low chirping of insects can be heard from time to time, making it extremely quiet.

I don’t know how long it took, but the maid’s salute came from outside: “Princess.”

Mrs. Shen and Mrs. Mu Guogong both looked in the direction of the screen.

The next moment, the sound of the door curtain being opened came from the front.

Chu Qianchen came in slowly.

The lights had been lit in the room long ago, and the dim light illuminated the surroundings, giving Chu Qianchen a faint halo.

She looked the same as before, her expression was still very calm and unfazed, as if nothing could shake her in the slightest.

It's not that she doesn't believe what Shen said, it's just that her past life experience makes her more willing to believe what she sees and hears with her own eyes.

Moreover, everyone adds their own understanding and emotions to a greater or lesser extent when reporting something, which sometimes causes slight deviations in the matter, or omits some seemingly unimportant details...

What that Zhike monk said was not entirely accurate.

At least, he did not see Chu Lingxiao take out the child from the abbot with his own eyes. He only saw Chu Lingxiao carrying the baby in his arms and leaving Daping Temple from a distance. Later, he heard from another monk that he had seen Chu Lingxiao. Chu Lingxiao went to the abbot before leaving Daping Temple.

but-

It should be true that Chu Lingxiao took out a child from the temple.

Chu Qianchen looked calm on the outside, but his thoughts were spinning rapidly.

When she walked around the rosewood embroidered screen, she met the earnest gaze of Mrs. Shen in front of her.

There was joy, sadness, pity, and self-blame in her eyes. All kinds of emotions were mixed together, and they were so turbulent that they seemed to drown her.

"Sister Chen!"

Shen called out in a choked voice, her voice trembling like a lotus in the wind and rain.

With these three short words, the scenes of the past ten years flashed in front of her eyes, and all kinds of tastes surged and boiled. Her heart surged higher and higher, and finally burst through the dam, breaking through her last trace. Self-sustained.

"I...failed to take good care of you!"

Two lines of crystal tears finally fell from her eyes, sliding down her pale cheeks and sinking into her snow-white collar.

She was on the verge of an emotional breakdown.

It was the first time since the eldest daughter got married that Mr. Mu and his wife had seen her so out of control. The eyes of the second elder also turned red again, with twinkling tears.

Chu Qianchen walked to the couch and sat down. He raised his hand and stroked Shen's back to calm her down. His voice was gentle and rational, and he said comfortingly: "Mother, everything has not been finalized yet."

"The Zhike monk did not see who the child was, nor did he see the father carrying the baby out of the abbot's house..."

The whole thing is still suspicious, and there is no conclusive evidence yet.

"No!" Mrs. Shen grabbed Chu Qianchen's hand again, her fingers were still cold, her eyes were red, and her voice was hoarse, "You are it!"

She is her daughter!

Chu Qianchen was afraid that Shen would be too excited, so he massaged her acupoints again, and wiped away the tears on Shen's cheeks with a handkerchief, his eyes clear and calm.

After Shen's emotions calmed down, Chu Qianchen said warmly: "Mother, you can't be so excited anymore, otherwise your illness will not be cured."

Mrs. Mu Guogong also persuaded Mrs. Shen softly: "Yes, Ah Zhi, if you remain ill, who can help Sister Chen?!"

"You are not alone, you also have Sister Chen and Brother Mu!"

As a mother, you must be strong. Mrs. Mu Guogong used Shen's children to persuade her.

Now that things have come to this, no matter how much regret there is, it's useless. It's better to think about what else they can do for Chu Qianchen.

Mrs. Shen knew that what her mother said was true and tried to regulate her emotions.

At this time, she, the mother, was supposed to comfort her daughter, but now the situation is exactly the opposite.

Her eyes were surprisingly bright because they were washed by tears. She looked directly into Chu Qianchen's eyes and said seriously: "Sister Chen, don't you still believe it?" Because Chu Qianchen's behavior from beginning to end The performance was too calm.

"Believe it." Chu Qianchen held Shen's hand and did not dodge her gaze.

She knew that there were doubts about her life experience, and she had indeed doubted whether she might be born to Shen, but it was only a suspicion.

At this time, after hearing all this, she felt that it was too unreal.

Fate was too good to her.

God allowed her to live a new life, allowed her to see the prince again, and allowed her to completely resolve the knot in her heart.

"It's great that I'm not Jiang Minshan's daughter." Chu Qianchen said again, his tone soft but very firm.

Mrs. Shen couldn't help but think of the night before Chu Qianchen got married, Ms. Liu said that she was a daughter of a foreign concubine, but Chu Qianchen's reaction was just:

"If that's the case, it would be better."

Another sense of sadness surged through my heart.

Mrs. Shen couldn't help but put her arms around Chu Qianchen's slender shoulders and burst into tears, her body trembling from crying.

She suddenly understood, and her heart became clear.

Presumably at that time, Chu Qianchen was already suspicious like himself. However, while he could investigate, Chu Qianchen could not take the initiative to mention it.

This child is suffering even more!

Shen's tears flowed more fiercely, and the fabric on Chu Qianchen's shoulders was soaked with her tears.

Chu Qianchen patted Shen's back gently, again and again.

This scene is so warm, but within the warmth is hidden the sorrow, sorrow and powerlessness of more than ten years.

Looking at this scene, Mrs. Mu Guogong also wiped her tears with a handkerchief, while Mu Guogong turned his head and quietly wiped his tears with his sleeves.

As tears burst out, the frustration in Shen's heart also vented, and her whole person suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.

Mrs. Shen let go of Chu Qianchen and wiped her tears with a handkerchief. Her eyes were red and swollen from crying and she was breathing slightly.

"Sister Chen, can you call me mother?" After crying, Shen's voice became hoarse. She looked at Chu Qianchen with expectation and anxiety in her eyes, for fear of being rejected by her.

Chu Qianchen pursed his lips and smiled, wiped away a tear stain on Shen's chin with his white fingertips, and called briskly: "Mother!"

Her phoenix eyes smiled like crescent moons, soft and delicate. In the flickering light, her facial features became softer, and there was a gentle warmth in her smile.

Her smile and soft call were like the best panacea to Shen. Shen's eyes lit up with an unusually bright brilliance.

Mrs. Mu Guogong felt relieved and quietly glanced at the sky. She hesitated to speak and felt a little anxious.

Chu Qianchen moved his hand to Shen's wrist, checked her pulse again, and then helped her lie down, "Mom, it's time for you to sleep."

She covered Shen with a thin quilt, and Shen kept holding her hand and refused to let go, his eyes glued to her face.

Chu Qianchen looked at the sky outside the window and saw that curfew was about to begin.

"Hu Bo," Chu Qianchen ordered, "go back to the palace and tell Aunt Cai..."

Chu Qianchen originally planned not to go back tonight, but Shen finally realized what he was doing and quickly interrupted Chu Qianchen: "Hu Huo, wait a minute."

Shen had been immersed in emotions such as shock and sadness, and it was only now that she finally calmed down.

Chu Qianchen is no longer a young girl, she is already married.

How could a bride stay up all night after being married for a few days? How could King Chen be happy? !

My daughter has suffered for so many years, how can I cause her daughter any more trouble because of me!

Mrs. Shen reluctantly held Chu Qianchen's hand, her originally anxious eyes gradually calmed down, and she became the calm and self-possessed Mrs. Hou she was normally.

Mrs. Mu Guogong was originally thinking about whether she should remind Mrs. Shen. Seeing that she had come to her senses, she quickly ordered: "Quick, arrange some guards to send the princess back."

The bright silver moon hangs high in the night, and the first watch of the sky is about to begin.

Thinking that it was getting late, Chu Qianchen stood up and said softly: "Mom, I will come to see you tomorrow. You must have a good rest tonight."

As she said that, she turned around and asked Nanny Chen: "Is there any more Anshenxiang?"

"Yes, yes." Grandma Chen nodded repeatedly.

The calming incense used by Shen was all made by Chu Qianchen himself.

Dongmei said: "Slave, please send the princess out."

Dongmei personally escorted Chu Qianchen out of the house.

Shen couldn't help but wanted to get up again, wanting to see Chu Qianchen's back again, but Mrs. Mu Guogong pushed her back.

"Ah Zhi, you have a good rest tonight." Mrs. Mu Guogong said in a soft voice, "Don't let Sister Chen worry about you."

After a pause, she added in a complicated tone: "Other things... we have to wait until you recover from your illness."

"Sister Chen is pitiful. She still needs your support." Mrs. Mu Guogong was moved by her daughter. She gently stroked a few strands of hair on her daughter's forehead with her hand. She felt deeply that her daughter had lost weight in just a few days. A big circle.

This must have been tormenting her these days.

"Mom, you are right." Mrs. Shen nodded, clenched her hands tightly into fists under the thin quilt, and said through gritted teeth, "There are also Chu Lingxiao and Jiang Minshan, this account cannot be ignored!"

On Shen's pale and weak face, her eyes were deeper than the sea in the dark night, with undercurrents surging.
